New Media Theory: How Far Have We Traveled?

"New Media Theory:  How Far Have we Traveled?” invites scholars to examine what influence computer-mediated communication and new communication media have on traditional theories in the field such as agenda-setting, framing, uses and gratifications and gatekeeping (to name a few) as well as explore how existing theories such as networking theory, social presence and differential gains have been applied to the Internet.
